there's plenty of raw politics to toss around. joining me from the convention, john avalon, columnist for the dailybeast.com. author of "wing nuts." eric erickson, editor and chief for redstate.com. guys, thanks for being on. i want to go over with you a couple of, you know, it's a leaderless movement and a lot of the members of the tea party like to say that. there's not one leader of the movement but there are people who are popular within the movement. let's talk about a couple of them. tom tancredo who had the opening night speech. >> yeah, i mean, one man's red meat is another man's raw sewage. and i think last night's speech was ugly. it didn't go over as big in the crowd as some people at home might think. i think it is a consensus. this statement about barack obama being a socialist is close to conventional wisdom here. what's interesting is tancredo hasn't been that much a factor in tea parties to date. he's known primarily as an anti-illegal immigrant activist. that hasn't been a force animating the tea party so far this year.
